I've been spending most of time this past month dealing with various school districts trying to decide whether they should change the way that they elect their governing board members. There is currently a lot of pressure from Latino groups on the districts to change the method of election so that minority candidates have a better chance of being elected. So, I get to spend my evenings at board meetings discussing the appropriate action to take.

I'm looking forward to the holidays when the school districts go on break for a couple of weeks.
